00:03This is disgusting.
00:05I'm sorry, I thought you liked pasta.
00:08This is not pasta. This is gross.
00:12Okay, well, I'd be happy to make you something else.
00:15The doctor said you needed more greens, right?
00:17I don't think I want you making me anything.
00:21Why have you not learned to cook yet?
00:23You have been married to my son for almost three years.
00:27You're right. Why don't I just order something in?
00:33Hi. Hi, Mom.
00:38How is everyone doing?
00:40Well, everything was fine.
00:43Until Annie served me this.
00:46It looks good to me.
00:48Then you eat it.
00:50And while you're at it, why don't you find a wife who can cook?
00:55Mom, Annie made you this nice meal.
00:57The least you could do is say thank you.
01:00I will not.
01:03It's fine, Tyler. I'm already ordering food.
01:06So, it's no problem.
01:12What are you doing?
01:13I'm folding laundry.
01:16Did you do my laundry?
01:18Yes, I did.
01:19I hope so. I'm out of shirts.
01:23Of course, they're actually right here.
01:25So, you're just going to do laundry all day?
01:29No, I have some cleaning around the house to do and some gardening.
01:33You know, you can hire people to do that stuff.
01:38Why don't you get a real job?
01:41Oh, well, I don't know if Tyler told you, but I'm actually saving up money to go to nursing school.
01:48Nursing is not a real job.
01:52Why don't you consider going to be an accountant or go to a real medical school to become a doctor?
02:00Well, I've actually wanted to be a nurse my whole life.
02:02My family couldn't afford to send me to college.
02:05And then when I met Tyler, I just wanted to start my life with him.
02:12Staying at home and studying for school is not a life.
02:17When I was your age, I owned a company.
02:21Are you just planning on living off of my son forever?
02:25No. No.
02:28And I'm sorry that you think that.
02:31I love your son very much.
02:35And I want to work.
02:36It's just going to take a little time.
02:56Where's Annie?
02:57She's at the grocery store. I can get it for you.
02:59She is never around when I need her.
03:04Mom, why do you say things like that? She does so much for you.
03:09But honey, what does she do for you?
03:13She doesn't have a job. She doesn't do anything. She just sits around all day.
03:19I wanted you to have a wife who had a good career and a good family.
03:26You deserve that.
03:29Not someone who just spends your money.
03:32Mom, that's not true.
03:35Annie does everything for us.
03:38She does the cooking and the cleaning and the grocery shopping.
03:41She makes this house comfortable for you and me and makes it a nice place to live in.
03:47You see, she was the one who insisted that you move in here when you got sick.
03:51She wanted you to be well cared for and not send you to an old folks home.
03:55Yeah.
03:58I didn't know that.
03:59And not only that, she took care of me when I was at my lowest.
04:08She made me want to live again.
04:12I love her with all my heart.
04:16And I want you to love her too.
04:21Tyler, I have no idea.
04:23I feel awful.
04:26I just assumed that she wanted you to be there as the worker while she stayed home.
04:38I never opened up my eyes as to how much she did for the both of us.
04:46I feel terrible.
04:47I've been horrible to her.
04:54How many people do you know that have made it big in the arts?
04:58Compared to math and science?
05:00My daughter's going to graduate from an Ivy League school, become a doctor.
05:04She'll be able to take care of me when I'm older.
05:06Your son's not going to be able to take care of you as an art major.
05:11You know what, maybe if your husband was around, things would be a little different.
05:17Eric taking care of me is not my main concern.
05:22I want him to be happy.
05:24And I want him to give a hundred percent.
05:27And as long as he's doing that, what more can I ask for?
05:32As far as his dad being out of the picture,
05:37well, I do the best that I can to make sure that he's successful and happy.
05:43Yeah. Good luck with that.
05:45Hi, Mom.
05:46Hi, sweetie. How was class?
05:48It was awesome. Guess what?
05:50What?
05:50They gave me the lead in the play.
05:52Eric!
05:53Oh, you worked so hard. I'm so proud of you.
05:58And I have more news, and you won't believe it.
06:00I got accepted to Juilliard with the full ride for theater.
06:05Oh, my gosh! Honey, oh, my gosh, this is wonderful news.
06:10What a day. I am so proud of you, sweetie.
06:14Yeah, good luck with that degree after college.
06:18It's all thanks to you, Mom. Seriously, I owe you the world.
06:22Honey, I would do anything for you.
06:26And where have you been? You know, we're supposed to be having dinner with your mom right now.
06:30Screw dinner.
06:31Excuse me?
06:32You heard me. I hate those stupid dinners. And I hate those stupid classes you make me take.
06:37And what is this? Where is this coming from?
06:40I hate this, okay? I hate taking classes. I hate having no free time because I'm studying.
06:46But most of all, Dad, I hate you!
06:49Okay, young lady, I want to know what's going on right this instant.
06:53Dad, I'm not your little prodigy, okay?
06:55I don't want to go to some Ivy League school and be a doctor.
06:58That's your dream, not mine.
07:00I want to be a filmmaker. I want to follow my passions.
07:03I'm so sick and tired of having to impress you and your dumb friends.
07:07You are embarrassing me right now.
07:12No, Dad. You're embarrassing yourself.
07:16Jenny!
07:18You know, Ken, sometimes you need to wonder if you're living to make your daughter happy or yourself happy.
07:26You can't force her to follow the path that you want.
07:34Come on, Eric. Let's go get some ice cream and celebrate.
07:41Good luck, Ken.
07:46You think that anybody is going to hire you with this resume?
07:49What's wrong with it?
07:50Everything is wrong with it.
07:52A third grader could have made this. This is...
07:55I'm trying my best.
07:57Not trying hard enough.
08:03I'm tired of you freeloading.
08:05If you don't get a job within the next week, I want you out of here.
08:09Do you understand me?
08:11I'm not going to have a lazy bum living under my roof.
08:14Wait, wait. Stay and help me with my resume to make it better. Please.
08:18What? You want another handout?
08:21This is your mess. You made it. You fix it.
08:36Taking a break, are we?
08:37Well, I have to eat.
08:39Look, you've been in bed all day. Are you even trying to get a job?
08:43Just because I haven't left my room doesn't mean I'm not trying, Dad.
08:47You think I'm not working and I'm lazy, but I have been applying to jobs, like, all day.
08:54It's a really hard market right now, Dad.
08:58Yeah, you know what, Laura? You have never had any discipline.
09:01And I find it hard to believe that you suddenly have some now.
09:03Well, I don't know where I went wrong with you. You are never going to amount to anything.
09:19You need to go.
09:21I thought you said I could have a few more days.
09:23Why? It is obvious that you're not getting a job anytime soon.
09:27Dad?
09:27No. I want you out of my house by tomorrow morning.
09:32Do you understand me?
09:42This is pathetic.
09:45You are never going to amount to anything.
09:53Not trying hard enough.
10:03Excuse me, miss?
10:04Yeah?
10:05What are you doing here? Do your parents know where you are?
10:10My dad kicked me out because I couldn't find a job, so now I don't have a job and I
10:15don't have anywhere to live.
10:18My parents were the same way.
10:22Actually, I might have something for you.
10:24It doesn't pay a lot to start and it's not the most stimulating job, but I work for a company
10:29and I think I can get them to hire you.
10:31Are you serious?
10:34You don't even know me. How could you trust that I'd, like, do a good job?
10:37Because I believe in trusting in people first rather than assuming the worst.
10:42Otherwise, we might all be out on the street.
10:44Everyone deserves another chance.
10:46Yes.
10:47Thank you. Thank you so much.
10:50This is where you belong, this is where you belong, this is where you belong, you belong.
11:02There's a man in the lobby asking to see you.
11:05Can you tell him to book an appointment?
11:07Um, he says he's your father.
11:18Let him in.
11:26Hey, Laura.
11:28Dad!
11:30Take a seat.
11:39Honey, I'm in a tough spot.
11:45I lost my job.
11:50And I heard that you were doing well.
12:01Do you have any idea what you put me through?
12:04Hm?
12:06I was on the streets.
12:08I faced the darkest moments in my life.
12:14I was so convinced that you were lazy and not trying hard enough.
12:18You know?
12:19I didn't know how to help you.
12:23I was trying tough love, you know?
12:25I thought I should have believed in you and supported you.
12:30I should have seen all the hard work that you were doing and not just the moments that I wanted
12:38to see.
12:43Yes, I really felt like you abandoned me.
12:55But someone helped me when I was low.
12:58And I worked really hard to get out of that.
13:01And he taught me that people deserve second chances.
13:19I am really sorry for what I did to you.
13:23What can I do to repay you?
13:27You can start by getting me a coffee.
13:31Jessica, you know the rules.
13:33No free time until after you're studying.
13:36But, Dad, it's the weekend.
13:37Do not argue with me, young lady.
13:39No studying, no movies.
13:42Now, go upstairs and get back to work.
13:45Nobody ever got smarter watching a movie.
13:48Yes, sir.
13:58Jessica, what in the world?
13:59You're using your phone to talk to boys?
14:02Wait, that's my phone?
14:03Look, I pay for the phone so I get to look at what's on it.
14:06And you need to answer the question.
14:08Well, they're just my friends, Dad. I promise.
14:10I don't care who they are.
14:12You know the rules about using your phone on a weekday when it's not an emergency?
14:17I'm sorry.
14:18You're lucky you even have a phone.
14:20This is a distraction.
14:21Well, I was just trying to...
14:22I'm taking your phone for the rest of the week so that you don't get distracted by boys.
14:27This is all trouble, and you need to focus.
14:40I just got your report card.
14:43You want to explain to me how you got a B in math?
14:47Well, AP Calc is really hard.
14:50I tried to get an A, but it was just harder than I expected.
14:52I don't want to hear excuses.
14:54This is completely unacceptable.
14:57How are you going to get into an Ivy League school when you can't get good grades in math?
15:02Well, I'm still doing well on my other subjects.
15:04This is a perfect example of you slacking and being distracted.
15:09This is exactly what I talked about.
15:11You need to focus.
15:12Well, Dad, I'm 18.
15:14I can't just study all the time.
15:16I'm miserable.
15:17And I deserve to have friends and do fun things.
15:20Plus, you never even asked me if going to an Ivy League is something I wanted to do.
15:23That's something you wanted to do, and you just assumed I wanted the same thing.
15:27I can't keep living like this.
15:30Jessica!
15:39Jessica?
15:42Jess?
15:50Dad, I know you might think you're being a good parent by controlling me,
15:55but you're not letting me be a normal kid.
15:57I'm miserable.
15:59You're using your own fear to dictate every little thing I do.
16:03Do you remember when Mom was still alive and we would go get ice cream every Wednesday just because?
16:08Or when we would have friends over for dinner parties?
16:11Those were the good days.
16:14Now I feel like a prisoner in my own home.
16:18I've decided to leave and live the way I want to live, not the life you want me to live.
16:23I'm sorry.
16:25Don't look for me.
16:27Jessica.
16:28Jessica.
16:28Jessica.
16:30Jessica.
16:31Jessica.
16:41Jessica.
16:45Jessica.
16:55Jessica.
16:56Jessica.
17:00Jessica.
17:01Jessica.
17:15Jessica.
17:31Jessica.
17:31Jessica.
17:31Jessica.
17:40Jessica.
17:41Jessica.
17:41Jessica.
17:42Jessica.
17:44Jessica.
17:46Jessica.
17:48Jessica.
17:49Justin.
17:49Yeah?
17:49I think that this calls for a celebratory father-son dinner at our favorite restaurant.
17:53What do you think?
17:54Heck yeah.
17:54Let me get my jacket.
17:55Excellent.
17:57Oh, hey, Dad.
17:58Actually, um, could you spare a couple minutes just to help me with this stuff?
18:02There's just so much information I don't have.
18:04Ah, geez, Amanda.
18:05You said that you would handle it.
18:06I mean, I don't have time for all that right now.
18:09Justin has a championship game this week.
18:12I know.
18:12I just, I just need a couple minutes.
18:14Okay, Dad.
18:15I'm ready.
18:16Great.
18:18Amanda, there's dinner in the freezer.
18:25Justin, you just really need to focus on your dribbling and your defense, okay?
18:30They won't stand a chance if you keep the ball in close to your feet.
18:33Right.
18:33All right, let's go outside and practice.
18:34I'll meet you out there.
18:35Wait, Dad.
18:36Um, actually, today's the last day to apply for that loan.
18:40Amanda, I told you that you need to take initiative on this.
18:43You're an adult now.
18:45If you want to go to college, you gotta work for it.
18:48I know.
18:49I just need a couple more pieces of information.
18:51Not now.
18:52I mean, your brother needs to practice.
18:55This is the biggest game of his life.
18:57MLS scouts are gonna be there.
18:59Yeah, but, Dad, what about my future?
19:03I'm afraid that I'm not gonna get to go to college if I don't get this in.
19:06I don't have a sports scholarship.
19:08I don't have any scholarship.
19:09I really need to do this.
19:11Yeah, well, whose fault is that?
19:13Maybe you should have focused a little bit in school?
19:16Dad, please.
19:18Amanda, not now.
19:19Your brother needs to practice.
19:32Are you coming to the game?
19:34No, Dad.
19:36This is the biggest day in your brother's life and you're missing it?
19:39You're being awfully selfish.
19:43I'm the one being selfish?
19:46Excuse me, young lady?
19:47You heard me.
19:49How am I the one being selfish?
19:51All you've ever cared about is Justin.
19:52It's Justin this and Justin that.
19:54I'm right here.
19:55Amanda, where is this tantrum coming from?
19:58I told you!
19:59Yesterday was the last day to get in that financial aid and I missed the deadline.
20:04I can't go to school anymore.
20:06All I've ever wanted is to get a degree in business and start my own company and now
20:10I cannot do that.
20:12Amanda, I am sorry if things-
20:14No, Dad!
20:16You're not sorry.
20:17You're not sorry one little bit.
20:20All you ever care about is Justin and Justin's future.
20:23You helped him with his homework.
20:27You spent all your extra time with him.
20:30You gave him even the shred of attention.
20:33You don't know me at all.
20:35You don't know that the only thing I ever wanted was your attention.
20:40I don't know what to-
20:41Save it, Dad.
20:43Actually, Mom, there was something that I wanted to talk to you about.
20:47Oh!
20:49Is it about a boy?
20:51Oh, a little date.
20:54We should think about changing your clothes.
20:57We could head up to the mall and get you a brand new dress.
21:00Mom, I'm not going on a date.
21:03Oh, well, what is it, honey?
21:08Well, there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about for a while now.
21:12But I didn't know how you were going to react.
21:17Honey?
21:19Now you can talk to me about the name.
21:21Do you promise?
21:24Well?
21:26Mom?
21:29I'm gay.
21:31What?
21:33Uh, excuse me?
21:35Um, I think I misheard you.
21:37I'm gay, Mom.
21:39I like girls.
21:40Oh, honey.
21:42You know, you're not gay.
21:45You're my daughter.
21:46I'm still your daughter.
21:48I'm still the same person.
21:50I just...
21:50I don't want to lie to myself or you anymore.
21:54I like girls and I can't change that.
21:57I just don't understand.
21:59You must be confused.
22:01Yeah, this is wrong.
22:03You are not gay.
22:06Mom, please try to understand.
22:08I love you and I want you to accept me for who I am.
22:12This means I will no longer have the possibility of having a son-in-law.
22:21I won't have any grandchildren.
22:23What will the ladies at the club think?
22:27Mom, please...
22:29Stop.
22:30Just stop.
22:31I can't even stand the sight of you anymore.
22:35Get out.
22:38What?
22:39You heard what I said.
22:41Get out.
22:43You no longer belong here with behavior like this.
22:47You need to leave this house.
22:49Mom.
22:49Get out now.
22:51You do not belong in this house.
22:54Mom.
22:55Mom, please.
22:56Get out now.
22:58You heard me.
23:00You are a disgrace to this family.
23:02You will never find happiness!
23:20Hey, are you okay?
23:22Not really.
23:24Wait, don't I know you?
23:26I do.
23:27Ashley.
23:28Ashley Coldwell, right?
23:30We went to St. John's together.
23:32It's Steve.
23:32Steve Darien.
23:33Oh.
23:34Yeah, I remember you.
23:37You were great above me, right?
23:38Yeah.
23:39I know we didn't know each other super well, but you seem really down.
23:43I wanted to make sure you were okay.
23:45Well, I'm not.
23:47My mom kicked me out of the house today.
23:50Oh, no.
23:51Well, do you have somewhere you can go?
23:53No.
23:54My family won't take me.
23:56They won't even accept me.
23:57I came out as gay today.
24:00I'm gay.
24:01Really?
24:02Yeah.
24:03Came out to my parents last year.
24:05I was really lucky.
24:06They were very accepting.
24:08Wow.
24:09Well, that must feel good.
24:13Why don't you come to my house?
24:14My mom would love some extra company.
24:17No one should be kicked out on the street for being who they are.
24:20Are you serious?
24:23I don't know what to say.
24:24That's so nice.
24:25It's really no trouble.
24:27You don't even know me.
24:28Maybe not yet.
24:29But I remember you as a very nice and caring person.
24:33And I know you deserve to be loved and accepted for who you are.
24:38You can't make it through this life alone.
24:42You have no idea how much that means to me.
24:44Of course.
24:46We've got to stick together.
24:57Ashley?
24:58You home?
24:58Hey, Steve.
24:59What's going on?
25:00Ashley, I have someone here I think you should see.
25:11Hey, Ashley.
25:13Oh, what are you doing here?
25:16It's great to see you.
25:19Um, a couple of weeks ago, Steve told me all about colleges you've gotten into.
25:26Really?
25:28I thought you hated me.
25:31This last year has been the hardest year of my life.
25:38I miss you so much.
25:43I'm so embarrassed and ashamed of how I've acted.
25:49It doesn't matter who you love, but I want to be there to love you.
25:56Would you please come home?
25:59Mom, I appreciate what you're saying, but I mean, you kicked me out.
26:04Like, how do I forgive you for that?
26:07Ashley, people make mistakes.
26:10And we can't erase the harm that's been done.
26:13But we don't have to let mistakes control our future.
26:15You don't have to be angry.
26:19I know it would take a long time.
26:24But are you willing to give me the chance to make it up to you?
26:32Yes.
26:35Yeah, Mom, I will.
26:38I still love you, Mom.
26:42I love you.
26:49You know, I was thinking, I think we should buy a permanent vacation home there.
26:57That would be a lot.
26:59I mean, I work all the time.
27:01We'd never be able to go.
27:05You can afford it.
27:09You know, sweetie, I love my new Birkin bag that you got me for our wedding.
27:16But I got a little scratch on it yesterday.
27:20I was wondering, do you think you could buy me another one?
27:25Sweetheart, I don't think anyone's going to notice a little scratch.
27:31Don't you think you should spend a little money on me and show me your love?
27:36You know I love you.
27:37It's just that there's more important things that I need to save my money for.
27:44Honey, what could be more important than me?
27:50Dad.
27:52Hey, honey.
27:53You're not going to believe it.
27:54I got in.
27:55I got into my number one college.
27:58Oh, that's amazing.
28:01Congratulations, Nicole.
28:03Isn't that amazing?
28:05Very nice, Lisa.
28:06But I don't think I can go.
28:09What are you talking about?
28:10Of course you're going.
28:11Well, like, the school is really expensive, right?
28:14And they gave me a scholarship, but it's not really going to cover most of it.
28:18And it would be a lot of money to pay for this tuition.
28:21I'll work overtime if I have to.
28:24Every penny I make from this company is going towards your tuition,
28:28and I don't want to hear any arguments about it.
28:31Really?
28:32Really.
28:33You mean everything to me.
28:36I love you.
28:37Thank you, Dad.
28:38I love you, too.
28:40Wait a minute.
28:41Um, you can't afford to buy me a new purse, but you're going to pay for some stupid college tuition?
28:48Don't you love me, Steve?
28:50Of course I love you.
28:52But Lisa's tuition needs to be the priority right now.
28:56And more important than things that we don't need.
29:01Oh, so you mean I'm going to be poor?
29:06Of course not.
29:07We'll be fine.
29:10We'll live comfortably.
29:12But Lisa's tuition needs to take the place of a designer bag or a vacation.
29:19Oh, live comfortably.
29:19For a while.
29:20Oh, the next four years.
29:24Look, we're going to be just fine.
29:27Right now, we need to celebrate.
29:29I'm going to go get some more wine from the kitchen so we can celebrate our newest college graduate.
29:47Hey there, Nicole.
29:49I heard you and my dad had a great time on your vacation.
29:52Don't play nice with me, you spoiled brat.
29:56Excuse me?
29:57You are jealous of your father and his money.
30:01What are you talking about?
30:03I'm not trying to steal his money.
30:06He's my dad.
30:07I love him because he's my dad.
30:09I'm not trying to steal him away from you.
30:11Yeah.
30:12I know.
30:13You're jealous of all the things he buys me.
30:16I bet you'd like a new designer bag.
30:20So you make up these stories about college tuition.
30:24It's my top school.
30:25Don't play games with me.
30:28Your father and his money belong to me now.
30:32I'm his wife.
30:34You think that if you make up these stories about tuition, he'll give you the money because
30:40you remind him of your dead mother.
30:44Yeah.
30:46I see right through you.
30:47Let me tell you, it's going to change because now I'm his loyalty, not you.
30:54That's right.
30:55I know how it is.
30:57But all that is about to change.
30:59Your father will never forgive you for this.
31:03What are you to-
31:04What?
31:05Oh!
31:05Ow!
31:06Oh, stop!
31:08Is everything okay?
31:10Oh, Steve, she did this to me.
31:13I was trying to be nice and ask her about her college and she turned on me.
31:17She said I would never be part of the family and that she was going to ruin our marriage.
31:23Dad, I-
31:24You don't need to explain anything.
31:26I've heard enough.
31:30Because she was-
31:31I'm sorry, Nicole, but I'm filing for divorce.
31:36Our marriage is over.
31:38I know my daughter would never attack you.
31:41Oh, Steve, she's putting on an act.
31:44You're the one putting on an act.
31:46I heard everything from the hallway.
31:48Steve, I was just trying to do it to save our marriage.
31:53I thought you loved me, Nicole.
31:55But now I know the truth.
31:57You were only after my money.
31:59You don't care about me.
32:01You're even trying to get rid of my daughter.
32:04I love my daughter more than anything.
32:06She's my only family.
32:08And after the way you treated her,
32:10well, I know that I could never love you the way I thought I could.
32:14You need to leave now.
32:17You're right.
32:18I never did love you.
32:20You know, we could have had a life of luxury.
32:24But instead, you decided to spend all your money on your daughter.
32:29My daughter's future is way more important than a life of luxury for me.
32:34You're an idiot, Steve.
32:36I'm going to find a real man who will spend money on me.
32:41And next time you see me, I'm going to be with a man richer than you.
32:47That may be true, but you'll still be mean and heartless.
32:51I feel sorry for you, Nicole.
32:53As long as you keep chasing money,
32:56you'll never know what it's like to have a loving family.
33:02I love you.
33:03I love you too, Dad.
33:07Don't ever talk back to me again.
33:11I'm sorry.
33:12I can't believe that you would do that in front of a servant.
33:14I just think that you could be a little nicer, Dad.
33:20She works for me.
33:21I don't have to be nice to her.
33:26If you want people to respect you, they have to fear you.
33:31You'll understand that when you are running your own company someday.
33:36Actually, there's something I have to tell you, Dad.
33:39I just got accepted to a very prestigious college.
33:45Excellent.
33:46So what school are you going to be studying business at?
33:50I am going to study journalism.
33:55What did you just say?
33:56I'm going to study journalism.
33:57I'm very passionate about it.
34:00This is unacceptable.
34:02You need to go to business school.
34:03If you want to get ahead in life, you need to run a big business and make lots of money,
34:07like me.
34:08I didn't spend all this money, effort and time on you so that you could go off and have fun
34:14getting a journalism degree.
34:15No, Dad, you don't understand.
34:17I'm not just trying to have fun.
34:19I really care about journalism.
34:24It does not matter.
34:25You're not going to make any money at it.
34:27Who put you up to this?
34:30No one.
34:35Francine, get in here.
34:40Yes, sir. Is there a problem with the food?
34:42No.
34:43The problem is right here.
34:46I don't understand, sir.
34:49You know that I am very busy at the company.
34:52It was your job to look after my daughter's education.
34:56You were supposed to teach her to be successful as a business person,
34:59instead of wanting to run off and be a journalism, wasting her time, my money, her money, her life.
35:06This is not what I want.
35:08I know that you're the one that probably told her to follow her dreams.
35:12I expect you to fix this situation, Francine.
35:17I don't have time to deal with my daughter's pathetic life.
35:25And have this removed. It was inedible.
35:33I'm never going to be anything but a disappointment to him.
35:37Don't listen to your father. Follow your dreams.
35:41You don't want to end up angry, unhappy like your father.
35:45You're right.
35:47Hey, congratulations on getting into journalism school.
35:54Your daughter has arrived, sir.
35:57Oh, thank you, Francine.
36:02Hello, Dad.
36:05Hello.
36:07How are you?
36:09I am busy as usual.
36:11I see.
36:12So are you still pursuing your silly dreams of being a journalist?
36:16I am.
36:18I actually came here today with some big news.
36:23After all my hard work in journalism school,
36:25I just got offered a position as a reporter at the National Paper.
36:29They just published my first article on the front page.
36:37Put that away.
36:38I don't have time for your little articles.
36:41I'll take the newspaper, sir.
36:43Good.
36:44Get that out of my sight.
36:47Okay.
36:48Well, I have another announcement which may please you more.
36:53Really?
36:54Are you going back to business school?
36:57No.
36:57No, I am getting married.
37:06Is he a businessman?
37:07He's a journalist like me.
37:11Well, then I guess you're just going to be poor all your life.
37:14Will you come to the wedding?
37:18I'll have to look at my agenda.
37:20But frankly, I don't think it's looking very good.
37:24I've got several very important business deals coming up in the next couple of months.
37:29Congratulations on your engagement, Miss.
37:31Francine, did I give you permission to speak?
37:34She does not need your permission to speak.
37:37Excuse me?
37:40Francine, would you please walk me down the aisle in my wedding?
37:44Since some people in my life can't make room in their schedule.
37:47I would be honored.
37:50This is ridiculous. This is a servant.
37:53She's more than a servant.
37:55Dad, she raised me, and she is more of a parent figure to me than you have ever been.
38:00This is ridiculous.
38:02I spent so much money on you, raising you, your education.
38:07You may be successful.
38:09Francine cooked all my meals.
38:11She did homework with me.
38:12She showed up at all my school events.
38:14She taught me to do what I love and embrace who I am.
38:19You may be successful, but you will always be alone because you have no love.
38:24Not even for your own daughter.
38:29This is absurd.
38:36I am so excited for you to walk me down the aisle.
38:39Thank you so much for everything.
38:42You are an amazing lady.
38:44I am so proud of you.
